Abstract: L'invention concerne un distributeur à pompe (101) relié à un récipient (107) contenant du liquide. Le distributeur est équipé d'un premier piston (3) alternatif se déplaçant dans un premier cylindre (5) pour pomper un certain volume de liquide lors de chaque descente du piston. Une soupape (8) située dans canal ménagé dans le premier piston est mise, sous l'action d'un ressort, dans une position dans laquelle une sortie de distribution (19) est normalement fermée et est mobile de manière à assurer la libération de liquide lorsque celui-ci est soumis à une surpression de ce dernier dans la première chambre. Un prolongement cylindrique (11) de la soupape définit un conduit (60) communiquant avec le liquide dans le récipient, et peut être séparé de la soupape afin de provoquer l'ouverture d'un orifice d'admission (105) de liquide de manière à recharger la première chambre. Un deuxième piston (39) se déplace en tandem avec le premier piston, et coopère avec un deuxième cylindre (41) de façon à produire un effet d'aspiration lors de la course de retour des pistons, effet utilisé pour enlever le liquide résiduel d'un canal distributeur (7), le liquide pompé étant envoyé dans une buse (32). Le liquide résiduel collecté dans la deuxième chambre est renvoyé dans le récipient lors de la course d'actionnement suivante des pistons. Le distributeur convient particulièrement aux produits liquides à dispersion hydrophile grâce à son action auto-nettoyante qui empêche l'encrassement dudit distributeur.

Abstract: In a telecommunication system (1) a central receiving unit (2) is coupled with several devices (4) via a transmission network (3), which devices (4) transmit data input with the aid of data input means (8) to the central receiving unit (2), usually within a short period of time. The data transmitted has at least partly been created on the basis of interactive communication with for example a television programme (6) being broadcast. The data to be transmitted is stored in a temporary memory (10) of the device (4), in groups accessible for being read jointly. The device (4) comprises a local processing unit (9) coupled with the temporary memory (10), by means of which said joint reading is started on command and the groups of input data are made ready for being transmitted contiguous thereto. Due to the resulting compact set-up of the data to be transmitted the transmission network (3) is occupied only briefly and congestion problems are reduced.

Date Mar. 14, 1996A method and apparatus for recovering fine solids from a liquid feed suspension is disclosed. The apparatus has an operating cycle including a concentration part of the cycle in which solids present in the feed suspension are concentrated and a backwash part of the cycle in which supply of feed suspension to the concentrator is interrupted, the concentrator comprises a shell (11), and a plurality of elastic, hollow, microporous, polymer fibers (12) being fixed at their ends within the shell (11). Pressurized feed suspension is supplied to the outside of the fibers during said concentration part of the cycle and the filtrate may be withdrawn from the fiber lumens during the operating cycle. During the backwash cycle the concentration part of the cycle is terminated by ceasing supply of feed to said exterior surface of the fibers (12). The shell (11) is then sealed and the remaining filtrate removed from the lumens. A source of fluid under pressure is then applied to said lumens before, at the same time as, or just after opening the shell (11) to atmosphere, to cause explosive decompression through the walls of the fibers (12) whereby the fluid under pressure passes through said walls. The pressure level in said lumens is maintained at a predetermined value for a sufficient time following said decompression to cause substantial portions of solids lodged within and/or on the fiber walls to be dislodged. The dislodged contaminant matter is then washed away by the application of a flow of liquid over the surface of the fiber walls; and the concentration part of the operating cycle is recommended by introducing the supply of feed suspension to said exterior surface of said fibers (12).

Abstract: The sweeping roller (2) is fixed to a hydraulically raisable and lowerable support device. In the direction of travel and in front of the sweeping roller a swept material catchment housing partly open to the sweeping roller is arranged with a conveyor worm (4), motor driven and running parallel to the roller. This worm conveys laterally outwards the material picked up by the roller. The swept material catchment housing enclosing the conveyor worm has on its front side a wall section (32'), which is movable and adjustable between a lower closed position and a raised open position so that it forms a slot-type front opening with a static conveyor floor (27). Through this opening during travel cleared material enters directly into the swept material catchment housing and is picked up by the conveyor worm.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for spinning a product, wherein a metal plate (3) which may be preshaped or not, is deformed on a rotating chuck (2) by a forming roller (4) into a hollow product with a wall thickness. The shape of the chuck is determined and is stored in a memory of a control unit (6) as a series of successive points. The control unit moves the forming roller according to a path corresponding with the shape of the chuck. This path is determined by the stored shape of the chuck with a desired wall thickness (S1) of the product added thereto. The metal plate is deformed by moving the forming roller according to the thus determined path. In each point of the stored shape of the chuck, the control unit determines a tangent line (20) of the chuck shape at the location of this point and adds the desired wall thickness to the wall thickness at the location of this point according to a line perpendicular to the tangent line to calculate the path of the forming roller. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An arrangement for measuring desired parameters of a contact lens by optical sectioning which comprises a support fixture on which a contact lens is positioned. The support fixture includes a container in which a pedestal is positioned, and the container is filled with a saline solution. The contact lens is placed on the pedestal completely immersed in the saline solution. A line of light is generated and directed by imaging and shaping optical elements over the edge of the container and through a selected diameter of the contact lens. An imaging camera detects and image of the light scattered at the surfaces of the contact lens at the selected diameter, which is captured by a frame grabber and is digitally stored for subsequent image processing and determination of the desired parameters of the contact lens. The analysis provides at least four basic parameters of the contact lens including the diameter (D), front radius of curvature (FC), back radius of curvature (BC), and center thickness (CT), and can also provide the lenticular curve radius, the peripheral curve radius, the sagittal height, aspherical forms and deviations of the several measured curvatures, and the power of the lens.
